Sayer Energy Advisors has been engaged to assist WLA Investment Ltd. (“WLA” or the “Company”) with the sale of the shares of the Company. WLA is a privately-held company with one shareholder.
WLA currently holds interests in oil and natural gas properties located in the Pembina and Leduc-Woodbend areas of central Alberta (the “Properties”). The Company’s stable, low-decline oil production comes predominantly from its interests in the Blue Rapids Cardium Unit No. 1 and the Leduc Woodbend Glauconitic “D” Unit No. 1.
Net production from the Properties for the three months ended December 31, 2017 averaged approximately 196 boe/d (136 barrels of oil and natural gas liquids per day and 356 Mcf/d of natural gas).
The Company’s recent annualized net operating income is approximately $1.9 million based on the three months ended December 31, 2017.

As of April 7, 2018, WLA has an LMR ratio of 3.85, with a net deemed asset value of $477,290 ($644,800 deemed assets and $167,510 deemed liabilities.
